Posted Sep 30, 2005

North Carolina has on its current roster two players sharing Nos. 8, 9,13, 17, 21, 23, 56, 75 and, of course, two guys wearing No. 32 -- both named Edwards. That confusing arrangement prompted statisticians at Saturday's UNC-State game to credit Barrington Edwards, a running back, with three tackles that rightfully belonged to Larry Edwards, a linebacker.
